Country and Beauty

Right now, the most distressed person was not Murong Ke, but the Yan State that she was most worried about. She was originally a frugal man, but no matter how difficult the conditions were for the Yan State, he could accept it! His loyalty to the Mu Rong was already deep inside her bones. Even though the Mu Rong was at the end of the line and had nowhere to go, Huangfu Zhen didn't have any ill intentions.

However, what he found the most unbearable was that there was not a single grain of food to be found in the entire Yan State. Xianbei member had a deep stomach, and when she was hungry, she would eat human flesh to fill up his hunger. But no matter what, Huangfu Zhen was still influenced by Han culture to make him eat grass and tree roots to fill up his hunger. Huangfu Zhen would rather starve to death than eat her own kind!

Murong Ke could be considered a well-known military and political type of talent in history, she had her outstanding qualities in terms of internal affairs, and Huangfu Zhen was even known as the number one smart talent in the entire Yan State during the period of the Wuhu Sixteenth Nation. However, they were unable to make ends meet. As for the farming areas in the Yan State, they were usually planted safely. When the harvest was about to start, they would be set on fire by the Qin Army's naval fleet.

With their economies tightly sealed by the Qin State, Murong Ke and Huangfu Zhen could not think of any way to break the seal even if they wanted to. The best way to break the Qin State's economic blockade was still through smuggling. The Qin State had a mountain of food, but no one was willing to sell it to them. As long as there were enough benefits, no country, no nationality would be of any importance. When Xie Fei had initially sealed off the Korean Peninsula, there were also merchants who took risks for their own interests.

But when Xie Fei sent his Qin Army to flank more than a hundred stores and kill more than sixty thousand people, the merchants of the Qin State did not dare to do so again! No matter how good the gold was, it had to have a life to spend! Even Xie Fei could only sigh, this was the benefit of a system of dictatorship, even though Xie Fei knew that it was a little too excessive to exterminate families of merchants who stole assets from their enemies, but since then, Ironblood's policy had actually deterred all of the Merchant of the Qin Nation s.

Huangfu Zhen pleaded at Murong Ke: Your Majesty, relying on a vegetable to satisfy your hunger is just to treat the symptoms, and not the root cause. Although it's difficult to resolve the current situation, for a long time, it's become increasingly difficult for us Yan State warriors to capture all of the vegetables, and all of the aboriginals have been captured.

Murong Ke raised her head and looked deeply at Huangfu Zhen. At this time, Huangfu Zhen had long since become skin and bones due to malnutrition. Even though she was wearing gorgeous clothes, her demeanor had long since disappeared. Murong Ke asked: "What do you think of this matter, State?"

Huangfu Zhen said: "This subject has two suggestions?"

"Feel free to speak!"

"The best policy is for the entire kingdom to surrender, and for the king to tie himself up in Chang An, he has to beg for forgiveness from Xie Fei!" Huangfu Zhen said: "Since that's the case, sacrificing one person from the King can save three hundred thousand Xianbei member s. As long as we try our best, and encourage others to cure them, within twenty years, the inferior clan will have the ability to save the Yan State from its shame!"

"Bastard, I'm going to kill you, you dog. What kind of idea is this?" Huangfu Zhen had not finished speaking when Murong Ke, who was by his side, waved his fist and rushed towards him.

The surrounding low class officials all looked at him like he was trying to eat him up, they all wished that they could eat Huangfu Zhen up.

Even when the Yan State didn't lack food, he still liked to eat human flesh, especially when she was under six years old, or when she was facing a beautiful woman. Her fists were almost at the same level as the casserole. If she were to land a solid punch, with Huangfu Zhen's body, she would definitely be done for!

No matter how hard Murong Bao's fist tried, it didn't fall. Murong Bao didn't even turn his head as he said: "Don't stop me. Let me kill this Han dog."

However, even after using all of her strength, Murong Bao was still unable to move his fist forward. Murong Bao's fiery temper exploded. He turned around and punched out with his left hand. As he fought, he said, "If you dare to stop me, I think you are."

Murong Bao did not finish his words because he had already discovered that the person clenching his fist was no other than the Yan State Emperor, his fourth nephew, Murong Ke. Murong Ke roared: That's enough, if you have the strength, you can't use it anywhere. If you are capable of scattering all over the Qin Army, what are you doing here?

Murong Bao's expression was abuzz. After a while, he said while breathing heavily, "I'll bring this group of people to kill the Qin Army!"

However, none of the surrounding Yan State officials made a sound.

Murong Ke asked again: "What is State's plan?"

Huangfu Zhen said with a pale face: "The best plan is to use offense as defense, to nourish the battle, to gather all of the warriors in the Yan State, and with the mindset of certain death, we will attack the Qin Army. As long as we attack into the Liaodong and seize the's provisions, it will be sufficient for three hundred thousand Xianbei member s to live for three years.

Huangfu Zhen continued to speak: "But the Qin Army is well-trained and equipped, even if our army fights to the death, the odds are still not good, but to use this tactic will be to gamble the luck of the Yan State, and if we win, we will create a new world, and if we lose, there will be no more hope for our humble clan!"

Murong Ke was silent, and it was difficult for him to make a decision. Logically speaking, he wanted to take a risk and make a bet, but seeing how the faces of the surrounding Yan State generals were still unsettled, Murong Ke's heart immediately turned cold. The morale was completely gone. There were no food, but there were also soldiers. However, Murong Ke was still a little unwilling to sacrifice her own life in exchange for the continuation of the entire clan! She wanted to use the war to solve the problem in front of him, but Murong Ke didn't have the money to do so.

Although there were still over three hundred thousand people in Murong Tribe. However, even if the number of men were to be counted, the number he could bring out was only 60,000 soldiers. Without a stable army and a food supply base, even without fighting, he had already lost by three points!

Seeing that Murong Ke had not made her decision, Murong Han became anxious and straightforwardly said: "Your Majesty, taking advantage of the fact that I still have the strength to fight against Yan State, Your Majesty should get an idea as soon as possible. Do you want to fight or not? If we move on for too long, our entire clan will not be able to find enough customers. I'm afraid that we will have to go to the old and weak to protect our young and strong. If a few more days pass, I'm afraid the only thing I'll be able to think about is the difficulty of the battle. "

Murong Ke hesitated, she knew that Murong Han's words were true, there were still sixty thousand soldiers in the Yan State, if they were to charge towards the Qin State at any cost, then they should have some hope of survival, but if they were to delay it, even if their own forces were to be exhausted, they would not be able to fight.

Even though he was hesitating, after thinking about it again and again, Murong Ke still did not want to use an egg to touch a rock. The Freshmen Murong Tribe was already an old rival of the Qin Army, even at the most powerful time, they were still not Xie Fei's match, what's more, what's more, why was there only a little old and weak? However, Murong Ke was unwilling to bind himself and go to Chang An to invite them to surrender. A fool would know that Xie Fei was a person who would definitely take revenge, not to mention that Wu Tang had caused great casualties in the past in the Qin Army. In just the battle with the Liaodong, the number of casualties in the Qin Army was at least one hundred thousand. The two sides had already formed a feud, so even if Xie Fei was generous enough to let his own clansmen go, the hope of letting him go was too slim.

Huangfu Zhen anxiously said at the same time: "My lord, do we really have to make all the fresh and weak warriors of the Yan State starve to death here? I reckon that even if we eat all the locals here, my Yan State would still find it hard to hold on for half a year. If not, wouldn't Xie Fei be merciful and let us off?

The sun rises and the sun sets. The full moon is missing. After three months of perfection. Following the example of the Ming dynasty's Old Zhu's system of Cabinet support, and combining it with the Republic's system in the future, Xie Fei had reformed the existing system of three provinces and six provinces on his own. First, Xie Fei abolished his own system of Prime Minister's support, and established the six parts of the system, which was called the Ministry of Civil Administration and the Ministry of Finance. The Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of Public Security, and other twenty-three departments and units, their powers and responsibilities were divided. Each department and unit was under the direct management of the Cabinet, which was in charge of daily affairs.

Xie Fei's plan was good. Even if his own children were useless trash, the Ming Dynasty would still follow this rule for 276 years and would still be considered as one of the dynasties in China's history.

As for Wang Meng, Lu Qing Cheng, Xie Kun and the other ministers, they were directly promoted to the first cabinet. Wang Meng was still the first vice minister, under him, there were more than ten thousand of him.

The reform was proceeding smoothly. Xie Fei's real intention was to carry out the cabinet system and implement it to form the future parliament system, laying the foundation for the constitution of the ruler. Xie Fei wanted to be like Britain, where the royal family would only become the symbol of the country and would not directly manage the whole country. Since this was the case, the Emperor's authority was small. Naturally, he wouldn't fight to the death for the title of the Emperor, which was just a show of feint!

Regarding Xie Fei's arch-enemy, the Scholars, Xie Fei promulgated the "Protection of Private Property" law to appease him, it clearly stated that the Scholars's land and property was protected by the State, and allowed the Scholars to carry out reclamation and purchase of land, hire farmers to cultivate the land, allow the Scholars to conduct business, invest in business, and even enter into the Cabinet. The law also added a clause according to Xie Fei's wishes, stating that the Qin State would not collect any tax at all for any period of time on local cultivated land. Private property of the people shall be protected by the laws of the State. But when the state buys food, the people must trade at less than half the market price unconditionally.

Abolishing the agricultural tax, Xie Fei had originally planned to only implement it after entering the industrial revolution. However, after Xie Fei looked carefully at the Qin State's huge revenues, he realized that the overseas colonies accounted for 50% of the revenues, and the commercial taxes accounted for 45% of the country's revenues, but the agricultural tax was only worth half, which was equivalent to about 85 million Qin dollars per year. This amount of money was nothing to Xie Fei.

This was because there were tens of thousands of public servants in the country who were engaged in agricultural taxation alone. These people could be laid off completely, saving a large amount of financial expenses!

Furthermore, under the influence of Xie Fei, these Great Merchant Union, which was born in Scholars, had obtained a large amount of benefits from the colonization of Qin State overseas. This helped to slow down their relationship with Xie Fei, and allowed them to tie themselves even more firmly onto Xie Fei's chariot. Furthermore, these Scholars who possessed a large number of cultural intellectuals, were no longer willing to let Xie Fei stop expanding their ranks. They used their own advantages of being an intellectual to create many private newspapers in the way that Xie Fei had established the Chang An newspaper. Especially the Jiangnan Merchant Union and the Ba Shu Merchant Union, they had taken advantage of their public opinion and started to build up their influence in the Qin State. A legal foundation!

It was only now that Xie Fei understood what the Han people were missing, and that was sealing. They lacked aggression, and were bullied by others. This was the principle of being ridden by people. A nation's forest was made up of natural selection, the weak would prey on the strong, and the fittest would survive!

There was no such thing as a peaceful rise in the face of a true nation's rise. Every rise of a nation meant stepping on the bones of another people! Japan's rise was through the A'Mang War, to defeat the Qing state, to defeat Russia, and to rise quickly. The rise of the United States was also because they stepped on the corpse of the Germanic people, the world's weak and small people.

Xie Fei now wanted to unify the correct values of the Han people. A nation of etiquette was not a sheep that could only be bullied by others. A truly strong nation and people did not rely on their own economic culture, but on their own fist in the end!
